German vocabulary by CEFR level, A1–C1

Words on this page: 564. Each opens a full card: meaning, pronunciation, forms and an example.

German nouns come with one of three genders, so the words here are listed with their article: der Mann, die Frau, das Mädchen. A girl is neuter, because the ending -chen decides, not the meaning. Nouns are capitalised. Many roots are shared with English, and some of them mislead: bekommen means to get, not to become, which is werden. Eigentlich means actually.
